I didn't get around to finishing the contest yesterday, so there was a little bit of an extra extension. Anyway, congratulations to our winners: d-loot, johnny_luddite and sledgbrainerd. Enjoy the badges.

Thanks to everyone who participated. We'll be starting up a new contest soon. Keep your eyes peeled.

Also, while I have your attention. I have a favor to ask of anyone who is willing (there might be a badge in it for you). I'm going to start working on fixing/redesigning the way our form inputs work for 2.0. There will be some notable improvements (URLs won't get destroyed anymore for starters!).

Anyway, I've noticed quite a few places across the site, tags/forum posts/liner notes/favorites lists/mix descriptions/etc, text has sometimes broken the page. Sometimes it is too long for the container it is in and it screws up the layout, other times it might cause graphical glitches (borders sometimes disappear from mixtape tracklists if there is a hyperlink in the description), etc etc. I am going to fix these problems, but I want to have some test cases to use and am far too lazy to dig through the site to find cases where this sort of thing happens.

If anyone knows of any off the top of their head, or if they feel like searching... I will greatly appreciate and appropriately reward you!

the mixtape & user list is a different bug and is a css anomaly... lists have been redesigned in 2.0 so it's gone.

Sledge: yeah, I've seen that before, it has done it with me too... I don't know the exact cause, but we have code to translate text line breaks into html line breaks, and for some reason it is interpreting extra line breaks. I will try to figure it out... what browser/version are you using?

cst003: it doesn't intentionally put spaces in URLs... we just got lazy. we have the code automatically insert a space every 50 characters in order to prevent content from breaking the width of the page. We just never did any filtering on URLs... this will be taken care of in 2.0... we'll be doing something like the following:

[url]your link here[/url] - will format a link
[user]username[/user] - will create a link to a user's profile
[mix]mix id[/mix] - will create a link to a specific mixtape, etc

we still won't allow html because that is a whole other can of worms, but we'll try to add enough tags like those above that things shouldn't be as constrictive.

oh, corey, whenever I write descriptions for tracks in mixes, if its over like two lines, it formats all wierd. You can look at any of my last 5-10 mixes to see this.
